Ultra Mountain FL W/ Trekking pole

OutDoor INDUSTRY AWARD 2012

OutDoor INDUSTRY AWARD 2012

The Women’s Ultra Mountain FL Z-Pole combines the compactibility provided by the folding Z-Pole Technology with 20 cm of FlickLock Pro adjustability into one do-it-all four-season pole. The lightweight EVA foam grips, grip extensions, wrist straps and pole lengths are all sized specifically for women. These poles are all business under the soft exterior: fold them up for compact travel or packing, then deploy them for backpacking, hiking, snowshoeing or backcountry skiing. They include interchangeable carbide Tech Tips, non-marking rubber Tech Tips, 60 mm Trekking Baskets and Compactor Powder Baskets.

What the jury had to say: “The Ultra Mountain FL W is a trekking pole that can be easily folded up to be very compact and then expanded again in seconds. It is completely adjustable and exhibits high stability and light weight. The wrist strap is one of the most comfortable straps currently on the market. It can also be used while wearing gloves and looks stylish, too.”
